I have known a man who became a priest after being widowed, one who was an Anglican priest and married to a woman before becoming a Catholic priest, while still married. I can think of three who left the priesthood to marry women. A couple who broke off relationships with women to follow their priestly vocation.
Those are some I can think of off the top of my head. I hope you would not paint all priests with the gay brush. Straight ones exist. They need to speak up.

They need to speak up.

Yes they do but given the current pope's views I don't expect a lot of support for that idea, do you? This country seems to be rejecting God more openly every day and I fear only the return of Jesus can mend the broken heart of this nation.
